Ukraines 2004 presidential election was falsified, spurring the Orange Revolution. To many observers, the Orange Revolution was a shock, and the stolen elections a recent development. However, both the election fraud and the effort to topple the government of Leonid Kuchma emerged from political dynamics that had appeared in earlier Ukrainian elections.
In this path breaking volume, leading scholars place Ukraines 2004 Orange Revolution in the longer perspective of Ukraines post-Soviet electoral politics.

These authors bring complex and varied perspectives that situate Ukraines post-Soviet elections in economic reforms, constitutional law, foreign policy objectives of integra
